Her Restless Heart: Stitches in Time Book 1
Mary Katherine is caught between the traditions of her faith and the pull of a different life. When Daniel, an Amish man living in Florida, arrives and shares her restlessness, Mary Katherine feels drawn to him and curious about the life he leads away from Lancaster County. But her longtime friend Jacob has been in love with her for years. He’s discouraged that she’s never viewed him as anything but a friend and despairs that he is about to lose Mary Katherine to this outsider Will the conflicted Mary Katherine be lost to the Englisch world, or to Daniel, who might take her away to Florida? Or will she embrace her Amish faith and recognize Jacob as the man she should marry and build a life with?
Can a Canaanite harlot who has made her livelihood by looking desirable to men make a fitting wife for one of the leaders of Israel? Shockingly, the Bible’s answer is yes. Pearl in the Sand tells Rahab’s untold story. Rahab lives in a wall; her house is built into the defensive walls of the City of Jericho. Other walls surround her as well-walls of fear, rejection, unworthiness. A woman with a wrecked past; a man of success, of faith … of pride; a marriage only God would conceive! Through the heartaches of a stormy relationship, Rahab and Salmone learn the true source of one another’s worth and find healing in God.
Little does young Kate Merritt realize that bringing home the half-starved five-year-old abandoned on the steps of her grandfather Reece’s church will set in motion a chain of events destined to reveal long-buried secrets in the town of Rosey Corner, Kentucky. Kate is Victor and Nadine’s middle child, a caretaker by nature with a tremendous sense of responsibility and a sunny, energetic nature. Little Lorena Birdsong captures her heart when she inquires whether Kate is the angel sent by her Mommy to bring food. Troubled by her father’s drinking after recurrent war-related PTSD nightmares and her mother’s emotional withdrawal, Kate is capably portrayed on the cusp of adolescence, as still very much a child in some ways, even while shouldering an adult role in keeping the family together.
He had long ago forgotten his real name; or maybe he just didn’t want to remember it. If he remembered his name, then he would have to admit to himself that he was once somebody. That, he was sure, would snap any resemblance of sanity he had left. The only thing that kept him from throwing himself off the Golden Gate Bridge was the voices. They soothed him, and kept him company. Through the pain of years of begging, stealing, and beating people for what he needed, only the voices gave him a constant sense of comfort and direction. They never judged, but they encouraged him to do what he needed to do to survive. They understood what it took to survive in an ugly and pretentious world.
